Tomatillo Green Physalis Philadelphica is an open pollinated tomatillo. Tomatillo Green seeds can be started indoors six weeks before the last spring frost. The seeds can be planted in individual 3" pots, and after four weeks, the plant can be transplanted into larger pots. In one week after the last spring frost, transplant plants outdoors, spacing the plants 2 feet apart in rows 3 feet apart.
